What is it supposed to prove exactly? There is a difference between being able to *represent* nanoseconds and being able to *measure* them; let alone give a precise meaning to them. (and ironically, floating-point numbers are precise enough to represent these numbers unambiguously) Regards Antoine. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
